A worker who is undergoing education or training in the interest of the employer or in his/her own interest has the right to absence from work to prepare for or take exams. If there is no agreement whatsoever, the worker has the right to absence from work on the days on which he/she takes exams for the first time and the right to paid absence from work.
If the employee does not follow the obligation to participate in training, the employer may impose admonition or other disciplinary sanctions such as a fine or deprivation of bonuses if such sanctions are laid down in a branch collective agreement.
